Sounds rather odd i am actually running to wpa54g's in just this setup and have wpa on.

My setup is
Siemens ADSL Modem
Wrt54g (kyperwap enabled)
Dlink Du-704p Print server
Two Wap54gs 2.08
And a netgear wrt624g

this setup runs across two houses and work flawless.

I was thinking the same way but the Verizon buddy is connected via a Linksys WRT54G.

Cyberskye, Im currently running active but I was running passive. I just disabled passive mode.

Verizon isnt blocking ports. I can connect to ftp.linksys.com from my buddys house. He has Verizon DSL. My other friend has Comcast, and he connects to me with no problem.

It really sounds like a line issue. Is the modem/router going through a full reset or is the modem losing sync?

Exeem is OK except for the fact that it is slow at times. Not downloading, but searching can take a long time.

Besides that, its cool!

Have you disabled the Windows Firewall on both PC's?

Enable VPN pass-through, or disable the VPN filter. You will find this in the router set-up page. On Linksys its usually http://192.168.1.1 .

Disconnect ALL OF THE PHONES in the house and see if your modem loses sync. If not, hook up each phone ONE BY ONE and test. If you lose sync on say the 3rd phone, then you know that you have a bad phone. A bad phone in the house WILL cause problems with Verizon DSL.

crazyjw1971

Im not too familiar with MAC's but...

Have TCP/IP... Have internet connection through router. I have 2 MAC's at my job and they connect with no problem. Thank god I dont have to service them

.

crazyjw1971

This may be a long shot but... Clone the MAC address from the PC that works online into the router. Just look for the MAC CLONE feature in the router set-up page. That way, you fool your ISP into thinking the same PC is hooked up. You should get an IP address then.

crazyjw1971

ErikD wrote:Yes, it has the same ip address that my modem has when connected directly to the PC.

By chance, would you have Verizon DSL? IIRC, with some of the older modems, you would have to change the IP of the router from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.2.1 to resolve an IP conflict with the modem.

Go to Linksys' website and download the latest firmware for your router. MAKE SURE YOU GET THE CORRECT VERSION (ex. WRT54Gv1, WRT54Gv1.1. WRT54Gv2, WRT54Gv2.2)! Look under the bottom of the router and you will see a sticker identifying your router. Again, MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD THE CORRECT FIRMWARE ...
